Legacy Capital has hired EDGE Realty Partners to market the commercial land in their new master-planned community, Chisholm Trail Ranch, located along the new Chisholm Trail Parkway in southwest Fort Worth.

Legacy purchased the 625-acre tract from Forestar in December 2010 and has been working with the city to bring additional infrastructure to the site.

"With the construction of the toll way well underway and the extension of Summer Creek Drive from Risinger Road to McPherson also under construction, we felt it was time to begin marketing the commercial corners to retail and commercial users," said Steve Saxon, Legacy Capital president, in a statement.

Chisholm Trail Ranch is at the intersection of McPherson Boulevard and Chisholm Trail Parkway. The tract straddles the east and west side of Chisholm Trail Parkway. Residences and commercial development is planned.

"Preliminary marketing of Chisholm Trail Ranch to a large assortment of national brand retailers has resulted in enthusiastic interest," said Brian Murphy, EDGE Realty Partners managing principal.

Murphy said he expects retailers to begin opening stores in 2014 and 2015.
